Caitlin Clark had essentially the same view as Travis Kelce during Taylor Swift’s second “Eras Tour” show in Indianapolis on Saturday.
Clark, who just won the WNBA’s Rookie of the Year award after the Fever selected her No. 1 overall in this year’s draft, sat in the same box as Kelce — Swift’s boyfriend — and was one row behind the Chiefs’ star tight end, according to Fieldhouse Files.
It marked the second consecutive night Clark attended Swift’s concert, as she posted “IM FIRED UP!!!!!!!” from her seat on Friday.

Clark’s mother also attended the Saturday performance, according to Yahoo! Sports.
Photos from Lucas Oil Stadium captured Clark exchanging friendship bracelets with fans, and before the second show, she posted, “So back” on her Instagram story.
It was a fitting overlap between Swift and Clark, as basketball Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman said in September that Clark is the “Taylor Swift of women’s basketball right now” — as the sellouts and ratings records that helped define her collegiate career with Iowa carried over into her first WNBA season.
“Her fans are like ‘Swifties,’” Lieberman said during a SiriusXM appearance. “They’re extraordinarily loyal. And in every arena you go into, half the people there are her fans wearing her jerseys. She’s a media superstar, but damn, she’s backed it up every step of the way.”
Clark averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists and 5.7 rebounds per game to help the Fever overcome a slow start to the season and earn the No. 6 seed in the playoffs, but that didn’t stop Indiana from making a coaching change in the offseason — firing Christie Sides and hiring former Sun coach Stephanie White.
